We are delighted to report Specialist Barge Hire Booming at Jenkins Marine.

Pontoons JML50 (50m x 14m x 3m) and JML36 (36m x 10m x 3m) have been on bareboat charter to Marine Civil Engineering Contractors BAM Nuttall. BAM are renovating the Oikos Jetty near Canvey Island, a bulk liquid storage facility constructed in the 1930’s, and requested the charter of both barges for a total period of 40 weeks to cover the duration of the main works on site. Both Barges have been supplied with 20m long spud legs.

JML36 is being used as a berthing pontoon for the support vessels on site, while JML50’s larger 1300t capacity is more suitable for transport of construction materials and equipment. Works are anticipated to continue until summer 2018.
